The agency also alleged that Andrabi has close ties with designated “Global Terrorist Hafeez Mohammad Saeed who is head of Jamaat-Ud-Dawah (JuD) and Lashkar-E-Taiba (LeT)”.

Andrabi acts as chief of the proscribed terrorist outfit Dukhtaran-e-Millat (DEM), while Sofi Fehmeeda is her personal secretary and Nasreen is described as general secretary of the outfit.

“The accused were using media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, TV channels in Pakistan, to spread insurrectionary imputations and hateful messages and speeches against India. The DEM, through Asiya Andrabi, openly advocates secession of Jammu and Kashmir from India and its merger with Pakistan through violent means,” said the NIA.
